Hybrid owners what are you getting for MPG?

[nc6600]

My mom is looking at a Hybrid Tahoe/Yukon and i was wondering what you guys are getting?

I am getting 19-20 with a mix of city/highway driving.

Not sure what it is now with the new tires and wheels.

I'm still on my first tank and the DIC is showing 18+ mpg. I've done a good mix of city and highway driving the last 400 miles or so. Actually kinda disappointed so far with the mpg (at least as it's reported by the computer). I was hoping to get closer to 20-21 mpg since that's what most of the Tahoe/Yukon Hybrid guys on the Hybrid Forum are getting. I guess it's still 100% better than the 9 mpg my Escalade EXT was getting

9? That makes me feel good about getting my Hybrid.

my xl with a 5.3 gets 15-16. I wish I had a 6.0.

That is what the mom's Burb gets. She's looking at a Hybrid or a Denali XL.

I've done about 4000 miles in my Hybrid, and been heavy on the gas. With about half high speed motorway driving .. about 90mph, and the rest a lot of stop start motoring in town.
I'm getting 16-17mpg.
I know if i cut my speed by a bit.. i'd probably be able to get it up to 18-19mpg easily and hit 20 if i am really careful.

I average 19.5 - 21. I don't go below 19.1. Blend of city and fwy (the fwy is 50/50 open or slow to 20-30MPH).

I did notice a 1-2 MPG increase once I properly inflated my tires (off the dealer lot they were a little flat).

The Hybrid has the 6.0L engine, with two additional 90-HP engines that kick in for extra power when needed (for that extra boost or augment the gas engine at highway speeds). Lots of power is a good thing

It's also really cool to drive in the neighborhood in stealth mode (since the engine cuts off and I run only in electric mode).

I hope HPTuners can get their software working for the Hybrids. I want to see what I can tune.

I really need to configure my new tires. My MPG is off.

 

[Yukon Joe XL]

my xl with a 5.3 gets 15-16. I wish I had a 6.0.

15-16 I wish. I get 11-12 mpg on my 5.3 xl. WTF . I don't beat on it but have never gotten any better mpg's. Had it for 10 mos. now.

i haven't checked it, i just drove it 200 highway miles to see what it would get. i just got the hoe a couple weeks ago.

Wait for mechanical break in before making final judgments on MPG
